In rand range, it raises an exception if low >= high.
I should also add that AFAIK enforcing low >= high with floats is a lot trickier than it is for integers. I have been knee-deep in corner cases for some time with randint where numbers that are visually different are cast as the same number by numpy due to rounding and representation issues. That situation only gets worse with floats.
Well, actually random.uniform docstring says:
Get a random number in the range [a, b) or [a, b] depending on rounding.
Which docstring are you looking at? The current one says [low, high) http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.random.uniform.htm... -- Robert Kern
